    Default Black Aces needs more activity

    First of all, it's great that Axeman is trying to revive this area, but it's far less active then it used to be. The competitions that Rick run would be perfect here, but I've been told that the reason they are in General Chat is so that more people will see it. My counter argument is that this forum has been generally less active for awhile so less people are checking in. But in the past, when it was more active, i.e. more columns, competitions etc. it had more people checking it. It was also promoted more in the ramblings. Isn't the reason we created it was to use it for forum members to contribute, write columns, have competitions etc.?

    Anyway, aside from Axeman's work, it seems that this forum is being neglected and would be good if something was done to get it back to its intended use.

    I support horrorfan in his claim. This was usually my go to area if i had a few minutes more to read something substanial. Somehow attention has dwindled down to absolule zero.

    I'd love to see people post their own articles in here. It helps if you have aspirations of writing full-time and have some samples out there already.

    My writing ability is limited to scientific reports and haiku, nothing that would be of interest for Black Aces, sadly.
